With zero prior flight experience but a deep love for space (and Star Trek), Matt Gohd took the helm of Zero G during a pivotal moment and helped guide the company into a new era—one marked by resilience, accessibility, and unforgettable experiences that allow everyday people to float like astronauts. In this episode, Beth and Matt explore the incredible evolution of Zero G—from its bold beginnings inspired by Peter Diamandis to flying 22,000+ people, including Stephen Hawking and Apollo astronaut Charlie Duke. Matt shares what it took to revive the company after near shutdown, launch flights during a global pandemic, and expand access to space-like experiences for everyone—especially through impactful initiatives like AstroAccess, which brings disabled individuals aboard to test space accessibility solutions. Listeners will love the behind-the-scenes stories of lunar pushups, parabolic protocols, and even the “best nap of your life” after your flight. About Matt Gohd: Matt is the Chairman of Zero Gravity Corporation (ZERO-G), the only commercial provider of weightless flight experiences in the U.S. With a background in finance and a passion for turning bold visions into reality, Matt stepped in during a critical time to relaunch the company and bring spaceflight simulation to the masses. Since then, he's been instrumental in growing Zero G's impact, forging partnerships, expanding operations across the country, and championing inclusion in space. Zero G now operates in cities like Houston, San Jose, New York, and even from NASA's Kennedy Space Center, offering public flights, corporate experiences, and research missions for institutions prepping for lunar missions. Check out GoZeroG.com to learn more, book a seat, or get updates on where the plane will fly next. (Use code “MAT10” to save 10% on your own weightless adventure.) Matt also highlights collaborators like Tim Bailey (the heart of Zero G), marketing pro Erin, and CEO Kevin Sproge, who brings military and Blue Origin astronaut training expertise to the team. And don't miss the mention of Jose Hernandez, NASA astronaut and subject of A Million Miles Away, who often joins flights to inspire the next generation.

Visit our Substack for bonus content: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/rewind-ok-go Aarron and Eli are traveling with their families for Spring Break, so we're bringing back one of our favorite episodes from 2023 with the band OK Go. In the time since we recorded the interview, they've come out with a new album, and with several new music videos, including for the track Love, shot with no cuts…just “mirrors, robotics, and a whole lot of planning.” Enjoy! *** Not many bands hire Russian pilots to film a Zero-G video on their cosmonaut training plane, known as the “vomit comet”. But those are the kinds of extremes that OK Go will go to in the pursuit of creativity. Tim Nordwind and Damian Kulash, the band's founders, met at camp as pre-teens in search of a fellow creative nerd, and founded the band in 1998. Over the past 25 years, they've created 3 Grammy-nominated music videos, and won Best Music Video for Here It Goes Again. From the perfectly timed explosions filmed in slow-motion for their song The One Moment, to the immensely elaborate Rube Goldberg contraption they created for This Too Shall Pass, OK Go is almost like a performance-art troupe that just happens to be a fantastic rock band. In this episode on the creative process, we talk to Tim and Damian about how they come up with ideas, the macro and micro elements of their creativity, and achieving the impossible. *** Premium Episodes on Design Better This ad-supported episode is available to everyone.

Andrew Parris, Broadcast Television Engineer and Space Communicator, joins Beth from the Cape for a long-overdue chat about life behind the lens at NASA and beyond. With over four decades in broadcast television and thirteen action-packed years at NASA, Andrew shares his extraordinary journey—from diving with astronauts and filming space shuttle landings, to flying on NASA's "Weightless Wonder." Andrew's passion for space never fizzled, and today, he's helping others chase their own cosmic dreams through The Inspired 24, a group he co-founded to expand access to the space experience and the Overview Effect. In this episode, Beth and Andrew launch into memories of SCUBA dives at the WETF, share laughs about zero-G adventures gone sideways (literally), and open up about the emotional impact of witnessing spaceflight tragedies firsthand. Andrew also walks us through his recent work with AstroAccess, supporting inclusive microgravity flights, and Copernic Space, sending stories and digital mementos to the Moon. You'll hear about the human moments behind the missions, the stories you don't see on screen, and the joyful chaos of bridging the technical with the emotional in NASA's most public-facing roles. Andrew's reflections—equal parts heartwarming, hilarious, and humbling—remind us that space exploration isn't just about rockets and research. It's about people, passion, and persistence.     More about Andrew Parris: Andrew Parris is a 3-time Technical Emmy award-winning Broadcast Television Engineer, space communicator, and Commercial Astronaut-in-training. He spent 13 years at NASA's Dryden and Johnson Space Centers supporting shuttle and ISS missions, astronaut training, and global documentation efforts—including trips to Russia and the Baikonur Cosmodrome. After his NASA years, he helped launch the first all-HDTV network with Mark Cuban and directed live coverage of STS-114's launch and landing. Today, he leads The Inspired 24 community, volunteers at Space Center Houston, and partners with space-forward orgs like Copernic Space, MoonDAO, and AstroAccess.

This is my latest invention!" Li Wei exclaimed excitedly.Zh: 他指向一个看起来很复杂的机器。En: He pointed to a complex-looking machine.Zh: 美玲小心翼翼地凑过去,皱着眉说:“你确定这安全吗?”En: Mei Ling cautiously moved closer and frowned, saying, "Are you sure this is safe?"Zh: 李伟摆摆手,笑着说:“当然,这没问题。”En: Li Wei waved his hand dismissively and said with a smile, "Of course, it's no problem."Zh: 说完,他便随手按下了一个按钮。En: With that, he casually pressed a button.Zh: 突然,机器发出一声隆隆的响声,整个实验室里的物体都开始漂浮起来!En: Suddenly, the machine emitted a rumbling sound, and everything in the lab started to float!Zh: 李伟的试验台、笔记本电脑、文件夹,还有他自己和美玲,全都漂浮在空中。En: Li Wei's workbench, his laptop, folders, and even himself and Mei Ling, all floated into the air.Zh: “哦,天哪!”美玲惊呼,试图抓住一个漂过她面前的书。En: "Oh my gosh!" Mei Ling exclaimed, trying to grab a book drifting past her.Zh: “我们得赶快关掉它!”En: "We need to turn it off quickly!"Zh: 李伟在空中漂移,不时碰到浮动的瓶子和工具。En: Li Wei drifted in the air, occasionally bumping into floating bottles and tools.Zh: 他努力向美玲游过去,说:“我们得想办法够到那个控制面板。”En: He struggled to swim towards Mei Ling and said, "We need to find a way to reach that control panel."Zh: 两个人在没有重力的实验室中笨拙地漂浮,试图不被悬浮的机器碰到。En: The two clumsily floated in the zero-gravity lab, trying not to get hit by suspended machines.Zh: 美玲灵机一动,用一根长电线当作“绳子”,向控制面板荡去。En: Mei Ling had a brainwave and used a long wire as a "rope" to swing towards the control panel.Zh: 李伟学她的样子,也抓住一根电线荡过去。En: Li Wei copied her technique and grabbed a wire to swing over.Zh: 他们成功地到达机器旁,但面临一个难题:如何在零重力中操作控制面板?En: They successfully reached the machine but faced a dilemma: how to operate the control panel in zero gravity.Zh: “试试这个按钮!”美玲指着一个明显的红色按钮。En: "Try this button!" Mei Ling pointed at an obvious red button.Zh: 李伟伸出手,轻轻按下按钮。En: Li Wei reached out and gently pressed it.Zh: 然后,奇迹发生了——一切开始慢慢降落,重力恢复了!En: Then, a miracle happened—everything began to slowly descend, and gravity was restored!Zh: 就在这个时候,实验室的门打开了,他们的主管走了进来。En: Just then, the lab door opened, and their supervisor walked in.Zh: 两人迅速站好,假装若无其事。En: The two quickly stood still, pretending like nothing had happened.Zh: 主管环顾四周,只看到地上散落的几个文件,并没有多说什么。En: The supervisor looked around, only seeing a few scattered documents on the floor and said nothing more.Zh: “看来一切正常。”主管点点头,然后走开了。En: "Everything seems normal," the supervisor nodded and then walked away.Zh: 李伟松了一口气,对美玲说道:“这真是一次冒险。”En: Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief and said to Mei Ling, "That was quite an adventure."Zh: 美玲微笑着说:“以后做实验要小心点。不过,有时冒险也是不错的选择。”En: Mei Ling smiled and said, "We should be more careful in our experiments next time. But sometimes, taking risks is a good choice."Zh: 两人相视而笑,心中都明白了彼此的重要性,也懂得了在实验中既要有勇气,也要有谨慎。En: They exchanged smiles, understanding each other's importance and recognizing the need for both courage and caution in experiments.Zh: 窗外雪还在下,但实验室里恢复了平静。En: The snow was still falling outside, but peace had returned to the laboratory.

We started recording during Starship's Reentry, so you catch our reaction live to that. It was a great day for data! The Starship team's have pulled off the practically impossible and soft landed both the Super Heavy Booster & Starship. We're not quite sure what survived, but that's space development! The world's most powerful rocket took another big step forward - expect more of these launches soon!

Otter.AI's Summary of the episode: "The Starship IFT6 test flight successfully lifted off at 5 PM Central Time, with all 33 Raptor engines functioning. The booster performed a boost-back burn and landed offshore due to a tower issue. The starship, carrying a zero-G banana and a Starlink Pez dispenser, re-entered at 26,700 km/h, testing aggressive angles of attack. Despite some flap charring, the landing was soft. The flight marked SpaceX's second successful full lift-off and booster recovery. The test underscored the importance of rapid iteration and data gathering for future human spaceflight missions, including the Artemis III moon landing and potential Mars missions by 2026."

In this Better Satellite World podcast series, we ask the question: “What would you do if you had the power to make the world a better place during your career?” Joining SSPI's Lou Zacharilla to answer that question in the seventh and final episode are 3 members of the “20 Under 35” cohort of 2023: Andrew Chau, Space Mission Program Manager at Millennium Space Systems (A Boeing Company), Bhavi Jagatia, Astrodynamics Engineer at Planet and Matej Poliacek, ISS Flight Operations Engineer & STRATOS Flight Control Team Deputy Lead at DLR – German Aerospace Centre. Andrew Chau is a Space Mission Program Manager for Millennium Space Systems, A Boeing Company, in El Segundo, California. In his current role, he leads Victus Nox, a tactically responsive space program for the U.S. Space Force Space Systems Command Space Safari Office. The program, which demonstrates how fast we can respond to on-orbit needs, is critical for national security space. Most notably, the program required a high-performance small satellite to be completed in a mere eight months from contract authorization; a 60-hour activation phase; a 24-hour launch phase; and mission operations-ready in 48 hours after launch. Under Andrew's leadership, the team met or exceeded these ambitious goals – eight months for satellite completion, 58 hours for activation, 24 hours for launch and 37 hours for mission operations. These goals can take years to complete, and yet, the team completed everything in under a year. Prior to VICTUS NOX, Andrew served as program manager for a high-rate production study and was the project manager for Millennium Space's micro control-moment gyroscope. He also worked as an electromechanical design engineer. Bhavi Jagatia is an Astrodynamics Engineer at Planet, a position she took on after completing a successful internship for the Orbits R&D team. While at Planet, she has made significant improvements to the tasking system for the company's high-resolution constellation of imaging satellites, SkySats. Bhavi was initially tasked with evaluating the complex schedule for SkySats, identifying areas of improvement and implementing changes to increase the collection capacity of the fleet. Her work resulted in substantial fulfillment enhancements, and she is now the sole owner and developer of the tool for her team. Bhavi received her Bachelors of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Cornell University, which she attended on the prestigious Tata scholarship. During her studies at Cornell, she worked with the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) on a project to investigate the use of flux-pinning on orbiting sample capture for a Mars sample return mission. Bhavi served as avionics lead for the project and participated in a microgravity test aboard a Zero-G flight with the JPL team. She also led Cornell's project team for NASA's Micro-G NExT competition while completing her studies and worked in internships at Boeing's research lab, ASML, and Honda Aircraft Company. Matej Poliacek is a Flight Operations Engineer and Deputy Team Lead of the STRATOS Flight Control Team for the Columbus module of the International Space Station (ISS) at the German Aerospace Centre (DLR). In this role, he supports the astronaut crew onboard by monitoring and operating the systems and payloads in the module, ensuring crew safety, smooth running of the station and supporting scientific activities. Matej also took part in the recent European Space Agency (ESA) astronaut selection, and although he did not reach the final stages, he was among the top 5% selection from the 22,500 applicants Europe-wide. He is currently the first and only known Slovak citizen to directly work on the ISS project. In 2023, Matej and his team conducted a hardware upgrade on the ISS from the ground alongside astronauts who were performing the on-board activities. The project, which involved replacing Columbus LAN switches, took several years of preparation, including writing and updating procedures, outlining choreography for the crew and coordination with NASA counterparts and European payload operators to facilitate the transition to new hardware with minimal impact on daily ISS operations. It took 2 full weeks of console work to complete, during which Matej supported the crew with ground commanding to properly configure the module both before and after the hardware transition, provided the crew with guidance for their on-board actions and checked out and integrated the hardware into station operations.

On this episode we speak NASA Astronaut Don Pettit about his Astronaut Origin Story and the 'maker mentality'. Don is preparing for Expedition 71/72 which will launch to the International Space Station aboard a Soyux (MS-26) from Baikonur Cosmodrome later this year. We were grateful for the NASA teams for helping us set up time with Don to chat all-things space. Welcome our first Astronaut to the podcast! Don Pettit's origin story encapsulates that of a Maker - always wondering if things can be done better and making things to adjust a long the way. From his early days in junkyards, his time as a Rookie Astronaut, and helping create the first off-world patented item (the Zero-G cup), Don has had an amazing career. We discuss what's to come on Expedition 71/72, how "the crew" is the most important aspect of human space travel, and what the future could hold for us in space. Thank you to Don, Garrett, and the NASA teams for helping us make this happen!

Instead, it's much more efficient to bring the asteroids down to Earth first, and mine it on the ground. Furthermore, we are first and foremost an asteroid mining *safety* company.

Show notes and transcript: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/ok-go Not many bands hire Russian pilots to film a Zero-G video on their cosmonaut training plane, known as the “vomit comet”. But those are the kinds of extremes that OK Go will go to in the pursuit of creativity. Tim Nordwind and Damien Kulash, the band's founders, met at camp as pre-teens in search of a fellow creative nerd, and founded the band in 1998. Over the past 25 years, they've created 3 Grammy-nominated music videos, and won Best Music Video for Here It Goes Again. From the perfectly timed explosions filmed in slow-motion for their song The One Moment, to the immensely elaborate Rube Goldberg contraption they created for This Too Shall Pass, OK Go is almost like a performance-art troupe that just happens to be a fantastic rock band. In this episode on the creative process, we talk to Tim and Damian about how they come up with ideas, the macro and micro elements of their creativity, and achieving the impossible.
